Needed new walking shoes for fall wet grass and weather. They do a pretty good job of keeping my feet somewhat dry if I don't walk in tall grass or step in puddles. It has a wide toe box which is great for my feet. I usually have to buy shoes every six months or less so the price is great. There is not a lot of flexibility in the sole nor grip on the bottom, could be a problem when ice develops. I don't detect that there is any leather in these shoes.I kept them because they are made in the USA.
